There are few people that can resist a warm location as a choice for a holiday and Casa Fazenda by Helena Teixeira Rios and Jacques Rios is one that I'll be thinking about for the next while. Instead of focusing on clean lines and smooth surfaces, the structure embraces the unexpected textures that come with using materials like stone and wood.

What's found when peaking into the Casa Fazenda by Helena Teixeira Rios and Jacques Rios is a very lovely spot for living an everyday life. That's something I noticed immediately with the home: it looks lived in. The sofas look ready to be sat on, the kitchen looks like it has been cooked in extensively and the focus is on those in your surroundings rather than on design or the outdoors.
